Dear Byron and contributors,
@bwallace @jensjap @dk-2feb2012 @bisen @sunya7a

your project currently doesn't have an explicit license. This means, that it is risky for someone like me to make a derivative work in the view of potential copyright infringement. Could you please add an explicit license to this repo, whether that be MIT or GPL or whatever else you see fit. (How to add a license: https://stackoverflow.com/a/37895659 )

I assume the lack of an explicit license is an oversight, but if it isn't (for example if you'd rather sell licenses to instead), you may consider stating this in a README.md as suggested here: https://choosealicense.com/no-permission/ My assumption is based on the description of Abstrackr as a free and open source program.

For my fork of your project, my aim is to allow the abstrackr algorithm to sort online Zotero libraries without the need for import and export actions and to provide an alternative interface for tagging and selecting articles, based on modern javascript web applications. A secondary aim would be to port the code base of the algorithm from python2 to python3, as support for python2 has officially ceased now.

I chose to keep abstrackr in the name of my fork, but as the copyright holder you have the right to request me to choose an alternative name instead.

All the best,
Michael
